I am really bad at it and it rarely comes out looking good, but I get an immense joy from patching up or fixing small clothing items (small tears, lost buttons, etc).

There's just immense joy in repairing something. It rejects waste and acknowledges your relationship with a physical item and your environment. -

Don’t put yourself down. You enjoy it, hurt no one, and quite frankly help everyone (the less waste part). Go for it!

@yon@sakurajima.moe I am just realistic :neofox_laugh_sweat: and it has nothing to do with style. Everything I fix is low visible. I do know someone who is skilled at it for when something important happens, I just don’t like to bother them for little stuff.
I was just patching a sock and a pillow case the other day and reflecting. There was a time when i would have thrown them away, but i am happier to fix them, even if they look a bit rough.
